Hi, I am 4 days post op and doing pretty well except diareah. My stomach gurgles and gurgles and I don't dare let it come out unless on toilet. Ugh....my bum hurts!!! I hear others complain about the gas but not diareah. I am taking liquid roxicet and all liquids. Wish I would go away!!!!

Any suggestions? Thanks, Randi

I had trouble with diahrrea also. I just had to wait it out. It lasted about 3 days. I wish I had an answer for you. Hang in there! For me it was all liquid in equals all liquid out! :unsure:

I had the same problem, thank God the Pink Stuff. The diareah and gas went away the next week. Then again, once I started eating soft and solid foods, all the plumbing return to normal. Good luck!!!

I didn't have a BM until 4 days post op and I had the same problem. It was almost like a bit of residual left from the mag citrate I took before surgery.

Doctor said to drink gatorade or pedialyte (baby dept) and the carbs and sugar didnt matter. Right now its all about healing. Hope this helps get past the diarreah period. Juices will cause you to have diarreah sometimes.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
